Of Montreal Song "Everyday Feels Like Sunday"

Wednesday, November 01, 2006

One of the great Canadian indie rock/pop bands, Of Montreal, is getting renewed airplay for their 2005 song "Everyday Feels Like Sunday," (not to be confused with Morrissey's "Everyday Is Like Sunday").

The song is currently being played on a television commercial, but I'm not sure what the commercial is for. I have to see it again (I was on the phone). Nonetheless, Of Montreal is truly worth checking out.
